A Word About Brandon

I figured it was about time for a Brandon update. Recently Grandma and Grandpa measured him at 6' 5" which was confirmed at his physical last week. He weighs 175 pounds, and apparently that is not quite proportionate for his height. The doctor says he needs to eat more.

To which I say, "How is that possible?!"

Brandon is doing really well in school and has been turning in all of his homework on time. He's got a solid B average or better this term, so he will be able to take Driver's Ed this summer. He'd be taking it now, but he is starting rugby which will take up a lot of his time through the rest of the school year. He decided he wanted to play rugby instead of lacrosse this spring, so he'll be playing for the Hopkins Rugby Club, which is not officially associated with the high school, but engages a lot of high school students. It sounds like we will be busy with practices, team dinners, and games on Fridays and Saturdays.

He has also started to receive the throngs of college mail, and will be taking the ACT this summer as well. Just one more year of high school left, which is hard to believe.

So that's Brandon these days!
